Interface CredentialsProvider


  • public interface CredentialsProvider

    This interface defines how to provide the user credentials that StreamLink uses to log into a Liberator server.

    If your StreamLink application does not use one of the implicit CredentialProvider implementations supplied with StreamLink, you must define your own class that implements this interface, along with an implementation of the Credentials interface (which is passed to the CredentialsReceiver instance provided).

    • Method Detail

      • onCredentialsRequired

        void onCredentialsRequired​(CredentialsReceiver listener)

        Gets the credentials used to log in to the Liberator.

        This method will be called by the StreamLink library to trigger an attempt to retrieve credentials.

        This method should not block. If retrieving the credentials involves communicating with an external service then asynchronous methods should be used and control returned to the StreamLink library as quickly as possible.

        Parameters:
        listener - Interface to call back on that provides StreamLink with either the credentials or an error indication.
      • cancel

        void cancel()

        This method is called by the StreamLink library when it needs to cancel a request to get credentials.
